The Grateful Ones

We embrace every day

Knowing God made a way

Divine purpose we find

God gives us peace of mind

We find strength

In talking with God at length

We ignore our naysayers

As we say our prayers

We stand on solid ground

We share the joy we found

We have no fear

Cause God almighty is near

We enjoy moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We remember who we are

As we reach for a star

God performs miracles

While we stand on principles

Faith makes us see

What’s meant to be

We count blessings galore

As God fills our core

We learn to stand

While we hold God’s hand

We run our race

In a safe and secure place

We rest at home

Where our souls can roam

We build our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We count every blessing granted

We water the seeds we planted

Life gets better

As we embrace it to the letter

God remains the light

We follow day and night

Our hearts beat as one

We see what God has done

We break into a smile

We laugh a little while

Our beautiful space

Is filled with mercy and grace

We survive every storm

We break every norm

We are the grateful ones

Together

We share all our days

In a million ways

What we have is real

Too difficult to conceal

Hurdles are in front of us

But in God we trust

We hold each other close

Cause bonding matters most

Our purpose is clear

So we move without fear

We face our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Cause a blessing was granted

We’ll water the seeds we planted

We know what to ignore

As God fills our core

We travel far

While healing every scar

Our hearts beat as one

We see what God has done

A tender kiss

We never miss

A tender touch

Means so much

We stand on love

While looking at heaven above

Together

We build new dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We run our race

In a safe and secure place

We look at each other and smile

We laugh a little while

God turned us around

Put us on solid ground

We get much stronger

As our journey gets longer

Cause God set our path

Without unleashing His wrath

We enjoy moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We know what’s by design

So everything is fine

We strengthen our bond

From here and beyond

Together

Dear God

Dear God

Thank you for the love

That comes from heaven above

For all our days

Helping us accept your ways

For making our purpose clear

Then removing our fear

For giving us strength

Whenever we talk at length

For fighting every enemy

Making us see what’s meant to be

For giving us pleasure

Beyond all measure

For setting things in stone

Never leaving us alone

For turning us around

Putting us on solid ground

For setting our path

Without unleashing your wrath

For making us smile

Even laugh a little while

For changing our view

After showing what you can do

For lifting us up

Filling every cup

Dear God

Thank you for the encouraging word

That deserves to be heard

For being the light

That shines day and night

For all the dreams

That make us burst at the seams

For removing the doubt

That things will work out

For giving us something pure

Making us feel secure

For filling our space

With mercy and grace

For helping us grow

More than anyone would know

For opening our eyes

To a wonderful surprise

For removing every cloud

Moments that make us proud

For the victory dance

After our second chance

Thank you for everything

Dear God
